Kate Delafield is at war. With LAPD's Department of Internal Affairs which is challenging her conduct during an arrest gone disastrously wrong. With the police psychologist who holds in her hands the power to keep Kate off the job--and is exercising it. With her police partner who has gone AWOL in Kate's hour of need. With the police colleagues who condemn the investigation and defense she's undertaken for a cowboy cop who looks guilty beyond doubt of the bad shooting charges brought against him. With the woman she loves who has been brutally reminded of the dangers in Kate's job. Worst of all, Kate is at war with herself, forced to question the integrity of her own police department, and forced to make a decision that will crucially affect her own LGBT community. Apparition Alley ranks as the most electric and suspenseful of the storied Kate Delafield mystery series. A Kate Delafield Mystery Series Book 6. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

The novel starts a bit In Media Res, in this case an arrest. The arrest doesn't quite go as planned and instead of being on her desk in Wilshire Division inundated with cases she gets to go to the police psychiatrist, and those scenes were really interesting back and forths. But, also she manages to get herself situated smack dab in the middle of a bad shooting case against a guy named Luke Taggart.
Again, as in the previous books, Forrest weaves the cases as such a tight tapestry it's amazing. After reading hundreds of mysteries I've gotten a feeling for who the bad guys will be, how the authors write them and the different ways they try to hide them in plain sight (or slightly off stage sight). And in each book Forrest has managed to surprise me with most of her stories' twists and turns. It's refreshing.
A solid four stars and an interesting look at the inside of an IA-ish sorta investigation. (
